Rise Of Teh Mlx

Armor buffs all around
Missile cool down added to the vaunted "Butt Goblin" build
Possible ER Sniper build to replace the PPC sniper (probably would still use the PPC, but that is me personally)
Maybe I just need someone to burst my bubble here, but I'm kind of stoked to take this acrobat back out on the field.
Now if only we could get a hero with some better hardpoints, or no CAP lock.

I still think the stock Prime load is the most fun (but not exactly effective) followed very closely by PPC/ECM.

Beyond that, yeah, it's a meager buff, but any buff is worth note in the Lynx

With the 20% cooldown on ER lasers, you can snipe decently with an ER LL.

Edit: whatever happened to getting CAP unlocked?

I don't mind have the CAP on some builds but I would just about kill to get it out of there on most of them...
It should help on a lot of build. I use the 4xSPL on my Prime(I) variant, should be better to put another DHS on this loadout !

I'd like a head with MASC

PGI, this is my Christmas wish! This and a light rescale size reduction across the IS (except the LCT, it is just right)

I am really wainting on the Lynx hero mech. They have ways to improve a lot of clan variant with this solution. Like the 4xE HP on the Purifier's torsi.
A Lynx with head ECM or MASC should be crazy and improve the value of the chassis.

the combination of laser and machine gun does work a little better at short range as both require you to hold your target for longer times (longer face time), whereas with srm, you can pop, shoot, and disappear having minimized face time, but also minimized opportunity for the machineguns. for me that is still not so much of a problem as i personally see them not as a single weapon combination, but both as tools for different situations.
i've also tried some srm6 with the cd reduction, however, the srm6 are much more spreadout than the srm4 (not fun when you want to combine mg's with srm on a single component).. since artemis is too heavy, you just have to deal with srm4 imo, or with 2 ton of ammo.. srm6 do tend to be a little cooler which is nice if you're not mastered yet, and i guess if you are a short lived rambo lynx, this might still be the way to go (highest burst/DPS at cost of sustainability).
i find running with a sniping weapon not as much fun, thinking a cheetah could do many things better with its faster speed, would you argue the quirks and mobility bring the mlx to a next level sniperwise?

The addition of a laser hard point is going to be a boon to this mech. I agree with most of the builds here but have generally settled ona my own meta ML's.
First build: My backstabber/anti-light mech
2SRM 4, 3Slas. Heat management is a dream, the 2 SRMS pack a whallop with enough ammo to last through a few mechs. The 3 slas will carry you through though
2nd: The spotter/scout stealth build
Very simple, ER PPC and ECM. Not much to be said about this build, lets you sneak up on people, the important thing to note would be using a PPC instead of Large Pulse (Each 6 ton weapns) means it's less likely you will reveal your location when firing on the enemy.
3rd: Large Laser, ECM and tertiary selection ...
This was in response to my clan asking us to discard PPCs for FW matches. Large Laser, ECM and one of the following: SRM2, 2Machine Guns or an add'l heat sink. ... Of my three mist lynxes in service this variant is my least favorite. The Large Laser REALLY lets people know where you are when you fire on them. The tertiary selections is nice but doesn't really do much for the matches, it feels like.
I'm excited for the new mist lynx variant and hope it will open up some options for the builds At least maybe having a L-Laser in a torso instead of the arm, I can't tell you how many times I've forgotton to twist off those shots and prevent that 1 arm from getting melted off. MAybe i'll smurfy my builds but I think the mist lynx is quite easy to build. The 3rd variant i listed possibly has 1/2 ton of armor shaved in order to make room for SRM2 and 1.5 tons ammo.
